lol wtf why can't they just be straight up and honest. One moment Linus is b/e vs bot+4 humans, another he's b/e vs 5 bots. Hard to take them seriously when they can't get a crucial piece of information like this correct.
I think that was referring to a separate thing. There was the 6max game featuring Pluribus and 5 humans, which was the subject of the paper, and another 6max game featuring 5 Pluribus and 1 human which happened after. The human winrates being cited, such as Linus' -0.5bb/100, are referring to the latter.
"We played 5 copies of the same bot vs Linus, so it doesn’t really make sense to look at the win rate of each bot individually. Being the same bot, they should all have the same win rate, and any difference would just be due to variance. (This experiment involving Linus didn't finish until after the final version of the Science paper was submitted, so it doesn't appear in the Science paper, only the blog post.)"
Here's the blog post that discusses the 5 Pluribus vs human setup
